The Enterprise Volunteer Coordination Program (EVC) is how The Core of Volunteers helps companies of all sizes turn uncertainty into opportunity — by channeling their people, purpose, and resources directly into community impact.
This program transforms layoffs, downturns, and slow seasons into a bridge — not a break — for workers and employers alike.
To create a nationwide framework where no good worker is left behind, and every company can find a meaningful, tax-efficient way to keep their people engaged, supported, and growing — even in hard times.
We believe that business and community are not separate.
When a company invests in people — even after employment ends — it builds loyalty, trust, and hope that ripple far beyond the balance sheet.
The Enterprise Volunteer Coordination Program provides:
| Stage | Description |
|---|---|
| 1. Partnership Setup | Businesses sign up as Core Partners and identify eligible employees or teams who may benefit from placement in volunteer roles. |
| 2. Employee Matching | The Core matches each participant to a Passion Project — a nonprofit or Core initiative aligned with their skillset and community interests. |
| 3. Continuation Period (1–3 Months Recommended) | The employer continues paying the employee temporarily (as severance, transition, or volunteer compensation) while receiving full tax deductions and verified volunteer hour reports. |
| 4. Reporting & Recognition | Companies receive a transparent impact report detailing hours served, projects completed, and measurable community outcomes — ready for CSR, tax, and public relations use. |
| 5. Career Transition Support | The Core helps each volunteer document skills, receive references, and connect with trusted partner employers for re-hiring opportunities. |
